I haven’t been following the clean build chat on emacs-devel, does
make extraclean delete macuvs.h?

Yes, and this was true even before the recent patches in this area.
We could try returning a useful message at configure time instead of
just failing during the build. Do you think the attached patch is OK?

Sure, that looks good.

I’d rather not just build headless as the usual build process on the
Mac is to do ’make; make install’

My idea is that plain 'make' would build a headless Emacs for src/temacs and src/bootstrap-emacs, as that's all that Emacs needs to compile itself. However, src/emacs would continue to be an Emacs with the GUI. This could be done on all platforms, not just macOS. Admittedly it'd be some work.
